This title describes the people my husband and I are becoming. Our faith in God and His word in our mouth make us victorious overcomers. I am hoping as I blog I will grow by leaps and bounds and share the love that God has shed abroad in my heart.

9/11

Couldn't let the day pass without mentioning 9/11. I remember where I was when it all started happening. I remember being glued to the television watching the towers fall and then watching all the families that had lost their loved ones. I believe our whole country was crying along with them; I know I was. I also remember the pride I felt for this country. The United States is the greatest country in the world. It was founded on Godly principals and I am so thankful to live here.

I was at home - my parents were gone that day and my grandma called us and told us to turn on the tv cause the tallest building in NY just got hit with an airplane! We were a little shocked! :) We saw the 2nd get hit and the buildings fall! I remember thinking "what in the world is happening"!!

I was in 1st period at school (senior year) when our teacher turned on the tv. We couldn't believe what was happening. We saw the 2nd tower get hit and both the buildings fall.I remember it so clearly and will NEVER forget that day.....

I was teaching 4th grade. I came into the library to start a video for my kids and I saw the tv screen. It was so unreal that this was happening in the USA. I remember watching the news when I got home and seeing countries paying tribute to the US. One said, "Today we are all Americans."
